road to the past (of horses and naked horsemen)

the entrance path to the national library in vienna. too bad i did not have time to enter as i was on my way to the sisi museum at that time, but i can imagine the vast knowledge of the past that this place has. the library grounds and garden is quite a spectacular work of art too, as you see with the sculpture of a man and his raging horse that adorns the entrance to the walk. i see a lot of scultures of naked men and horses and made me wonder: did they actually ride the horses with no clothes on? that must have been quite a task! lol!
